Trust Vompatti to derail a thread about a phenomenal actor and turn it into a thread about tying your friggin shoes.

I wouldn't say it was derailed so much as diverted a little  - and I learnt something which is also a bonus - I was taught the bunny-eared method because it is supposed to be simpler for dyslexics, but I couldn't manage that either - the Ian-knot looks do-able - unfortunately I haven't owned a pair of shoes with laces for many years so I have nothing to try it out on.
Anyway
I voted Good Ian because Byrnison Ian wasn't an option.

I couldn't tie my shoes until I was almost six. 
I was writing at two, however.

I voted for Magneto because this shouldn't be so one-sided.

I voted for Gandalf because I liked his performance in LotR and the story of LotR and the movie versions of LotR more than any of the respective things in X-Men. Though both series were good, the X-Men movies don't stand up to the LotR series IMO.

I really though this was about Vibrationbaby, who's known to switch from good to bad in a second...

Hmmm, tactical redressing the balance against the fan-boys voting? ... you may be on to something there.

Frankly, while McKellen seems to be a great actor, his performance as Magneto didn't strike me. But it's just because the 'X-Men' movies bore me. Ian isn't at his best in these movies.

Gandalf all the way, the performance, the character etc are way better than Magneto Ian McKellen rules nevertheless

Gandalf by far, I really loved the life he brought to the character.

Ian Anderson had some bad songs in the past.
